The bridge from
where the breathtaking view on the cover was taken |
Have you heard of Kalmunai? Well its a town on the north Eastern coast
of the island. Kalmunai has a wonderful sea stretch and superb coast.
Although during the tsunami the coast was virtually gone, it has now
picked up and is slowly gathering momentum.

Water is scarce, and many villagers
have to queue up to obtain their supply of water. |
Our cover picture shows the breathtaking view of the placid waters of
the coast in Kalmunai, taken by cameraman Tilak Perera. The town itself is
busy at all times and is now limping back to normalcy.
Schools have begun to function. The common mode of transport in the
North and East, is the bicycle, and some of the residents could be seen
cycling to and from work.
